Meridian Parkside Apartamentos

I moved into this apartment complex in January 2024. At that time it was managed by a different company. The apartments are nicely designed and have elevators, a pool, a nearby park and is close to I-64. There used to be a woman that came and cleaned the stairs and elevator. Maintenance used to clean up after the rude people who would throw trash on the ground or no clean up after their dogs. The complex was advertised as a gated community but the back gate has not worked since I first moved in... and now someone has hit the front gate. Instead of putting in engineering controls like speed bumps to prevent people from racing the gates, they just keep ignoring or repairing. At the present time at least 15% of the apartments are without working air conditioning. Mine has been out most of the time since mid April. The property management team knows there is a refrigerant leak and yet no permanent solution has been found. This is original equipment. The condenser was replaced June 2024. The AC then failed again the first hot days in April. Maintenance topped off the refrigerant twice then the AC was out again for most of the month of May. The coils were replaced at the end of May and the AC worked for about 3 weeks. I put another work order in on June 19, then waited through 3 horrific heat waves. The refrigerant was topped off on July 9, and today it has failed again. Property Management personnel cannot tell me if there is a plan for a permanent repair or replacement. I wish they paid as much attention to the residents that are living here as they do when attracting potential lease signers. The business model appears to be one where the do not desire multi-year lease residents, but just to pull you in and let you leave unhappy. Lee mas

The property staff has little to no client service skills and anything that is brought to them is passed off to the next person.
They do not answer the phone or call back when you leave a voicemail
They cannot keep a maintenance staff to save their lives and also refuse to hire outside services unless it becomes an emergency with too many broken a/cs like last summer.
The amenities are constantly broken and the security gate has been broken in the open position for anyone to come and go as they... please since November of 2023.
Constantly having to go to the office to fight them on unnecessary additional charges that get added to our rent each month - we have to go down there multiple times for anything to be actually resolved
Save yourself the headache and live literally anywhere else Lee mas

Horrible place to live. For one every one of the leasing agents is a liar and doesnt know how to do their job. Literally EVERY amenity featured doesnt work; gate never worked, elevator breaks every other day, every machine in gym doesn’t work. Maintenance only comes after the third complaint of the request. I was cooking in complete darkness for a month, not to mention if you pay money to get anything installed it wont work properly. I had a ceiling fan installed the same month i moved in, my... lease ends (thank GOD) in a couple of days, still not fixed. Compass at city center has same features but better price. I rlly wish i hadnt left for this hell hole. Save your money and run there! Lee mas

If you are looking at this complex, think again. There are more options in the area with more updated and up to date apartments than this. If you live around the trash compactor you will smell the trash and potentially see how people do not put the trash in the dumpster from your window. Lived there over a year and they only cleaned the stairway once, prior to that the spiderweb collection was comparable to Halloween decorations. No matter the size apartment you will only be allotted one parking... space and it may not be close to your apartment. Then the visitors parking will flood when it rains, which in this area you can imagine how often that happens. This is only a few things but definitely not worth the price. DONT do it! Lee mas

I really appreciate how friendly and personable the office and maintenance team are with every interaction!
